​Go, Venture The World

This week my daughter, Isabela, and I, got in the car and began driving without having a clear destination. Our plan was to go somewhere between DC and NYC to ski and later catch up with the rest of the family in New York City.

The same evening we checked in to a hotel in Pennsylvania located less then 2 hours from NYC, I asked a young man: “How long would it take us to get to NYC?” he immediately responded: “no idea, I have never been there…” Wow, I was surprised. 

“You have never been there, you are so close to it… where is the furthest that you have ever been?” I asked.

“Florida, and Philadelphia… but, I want to go to Thailand,” he responded

“Thailand, it’s a great place to visit… Let me tell you something” I said, “when you begin traveling it becomes an addiction and you won’t be able to stop... A young man like you should be venturing the world!”

Nesrin, my wife, constantly tells our children, “school is ¼ of your education and the World is the other ¾ of your education.” Traveling allows you to experience a different culture, different people, different smells, different flavors that will enrich your soul. When you experience different cultures and people you will start to appreciate those differences and build a better understanding of the World we live in.

In life: if you never try, you will never know; if you never try, you will never reach your destination.

I have plans of travelling around the world in the future. I have limited resources as of now, and I intend to visit different places after graduating. I have dreamt of travelling ever since I was still a child. I envy your life and I really enjoy reading stories about travelling. Hopefully, I can achieve my dream in the near future.

I've been trying to live the same way as you. I really want to travel all around the world in the future. I cannot do it at present, because of the lack of resources and time. One of my dreams is to venture around the world and meet new people as well. I really long for this goal and this is my one true purpose in life.

    Who I am today as a person is largely due to my failures!
    Failures are the speed bumps in life that matter!  They are not regrets but small disappointments that wake up the strength within us! Failures are the process of learning and improving!  Without failures we simply are at a status quo!  

    "success is built on many failures..."
